6. To check the transmitter's distortion, connect the
service monitor's
"Demod Out" to the
"Vert/
SINAD/Dist" input jack. Set left LCD to "Dist''
and read
OJo
distortion
on
the display.
If
using an R-2400, the "Pwr
Mon/
Anlzr On" function
may be used alternatively, to observe both the modula-
tion, recovered demod and frequency spectrum signals.

A. Passband Adjustment
1.
Connect the service monitor's
"RF
In/Out"
to the
in-service duplexer antenna port as shown in
figure 5 .11.
2.
Set left LCD to "Dev", "Function" switch to
"Gen", "FM", and modulation switch to
"Off'
position.
3. Enter the receiver frequency.
4.
Set the RF Step attenuator to
-30
dB and the
"RF
Vernier" to mid-range, to allow adequate signal
to get through a mistuned duplexer and quiet the
receiver. Reduce the signal generator output, as
necessary, to keep the receiver limiter meter read-
ing below saturation.
Use "Hi Gen" and the "An-
tenna"
port
if
the duplexer
is
badly mis-tuned, to
start.
5-8
5.
Tune the pass-band knobs
of
the cavities in the
duplexer receive leg, for a peak reading
on
there-
ceiver limiter meter. Reduce the signal generator
output, as necessary, to keep the receiver limiter
meter reading below saturation. This completes
the pass-band adjustment for the receiver leg.
6.
Set the "Function" switch to
"Pow
Mon" (or
"Pwr
Mon/
Anlzr On") and the attenuator to
-30 dB.
For
low-power transmitters, it may be
necessary to reduce the attenuator setting to un-
squelch the monitor. Too high an attenuator set-
ting
or
too tight a squelch setting will inhibit the
display
of
frequency and deviation information.
7.
Enter the transmitter frequency. Key the trans-
mitter and tune the pass-band knobs
of
the
cavities in the duplexer transmit leg for maxi-
mum power output. This completes pass-band
adjustments.

1.
Connect the service monitor's

to the
in-service duplexer as shown in figure 5.12.
Disconnect the cable at the duplexer receiver port
that comes from the receiver. Move the monitor's
"RF

cable from the duplexer antenna
port to the duplexer receiver port. Connect a
power-rated dummy load to the duplexer anten-
na
port.
